From my experience - yes.
I feel like riding a bike, especially on the street with other cars, is very similar to meditation. You have to be there and then, be aware of your suroundings and your body. You can’t really drift off into the noise in your head and you can’t get lost in thought.
I always feel sharper after a bike ride.
I feel that when driving a car, too. Not sure it’s really the bike riding itself, but the danger involved in dealing with traffic.
I get that vibe way more from riding a motorcycle than driving a car. Cars are way too insulated from the rest of the road these days, especially with automatic transmissions. I find myself drifting pretty easily in a modern automatic car.
I’ll hold on to my stick shift with my rigor mortis if I can!
